    Hey guys,
    So here's the situation: I have tonnes of home video clips which can't be more than 6 hours total in recording but are actually frikkin 15GB total in size. I copied them on my HD straight from the camcorder, and now I need to make a DVD out of it. Now I realize no DVD in the world will hold 15GB, but the thing is, as I said its just 5-6 hours and its 15GB because its uncompressed.
    So I need a software which'll do the dirty work for me: compress and make one DVD out of these clips. I'd like the DVD to have the feature of being able to let me skip to different video clips etc. by clicking "previous" "next".

    I tried Roxio and ImgBurn(not sure why) and of course they didn't work because they don't make DVDs! So please recommend a software which'll help me make that DVD.

    Thanks!

    I believe you're in the wrong forum.

    Anyway, give ConvertXtoDVD a shot. It'll convert video for you, help you make a DVD title with a menu, and set up chapters to skip forward and back to.

    haha.. yeah, my bad. I've always posted Studio 1555 related questions here and posted this one too without giving much thought. Anyways, thanks! hopefully ConvertXtoDVD will do the job. I'll try it soon.
